Tasks Ellie handles
Your toolkit
Everything in one place

PHP manager
Switch PHP versions per subdomain from 5.6 to 8.5. Configure PHP-FPM settings and monitor instance resources.
File manager
Browse, edit, upload, and manage files directly in your browser. Built-in code editor, permission management, and archive handling.
MySQL databases
Create databases and users, manage remote access with SSL, and open phpMyAdmin with one click. Per-database size tracking included.
Cron jobs
Schedule recurring tasks with full crontab support. Monitor execution history, view results, and test runs with one click.
Caching
Nginx reverse proxy caching with per-subdomain controls. Memcached for in-memory data caching with a built-in cache browser.
DNS zone manager
Full DNS record management with zone import and export. Built-in Cloudflare integration and DNS proxy toggling.
SSH access
Isolated containers, not shared shells
Every account gets its own SSH container with dedicated resources. No noisy neighbors, no shared filesystem.
Isolated containers
Your SSH session runs in its own container with dedicated CPU and memory. Other accounts cannot see your processes or files.
Web terminal
No SSH client needed. Open a terminal directly in your browser from the control panel. Same isolated container, zero setup.
SFTP and SCP
Transfer files using SFTP or SCP with your SSH credentials. FTP users can also be created for specific directories.
Pre-installed tools
WP-CLI, Composer, Git, and common command-line utilities are ready to use out of the box.

Git deployment
Push to deploy with framework auto-detection
Connect your repository, push your code, and we handle the rest. Build artifacts are stored so you can roll back to any previous version.
Connect your repository
Link GitHub, GitLab, or Bitbucket via OAuth. Select your repo and branch. GitHub supports automatic deployments via webhooks.
Auto-detect and build
We scan your project files and detect the framework automatically. Build commands and output directories are configured for you. Override with custom settings anytime.
Deploy and roll back
Every build is stored. Roll back to any previous successful version with one click. Set up post-deployment webhooks and email notifications.

Supported frameworks
Applications
Server-rendered or static, from the same repo
A Node, Python, or Ruby app runs as a long-lived container with its own port. A static or SPA build is compiled and served directly. Both come from a Git push.
It picks the runtime for you
On connect we read the repo: package.json for Node, manage.py or pyproject.toml for Python, Gemfile or config.ru for Ruby. Install, build, and start commands are set from that, and every one of them is overridable.
One rule for a server app
Listen on 0.0.0.0 on the port given by the PORT environment variable. Binding to localhost or hardcoding a port is the single mistake that lets a build succeed while the app never becomes reachable.
A bad build cannot take you down
A new container has to answer on its port within 30 seconds before it takes over traffic. If it never comes up, the previous build keeps serving and the deploy is marked failed.
Auto, or on your say-so
Auto deploy ships every push to the tracked branch. Build only builds every push and waits for you to promote it. Paused ignores pushes entirely. Set it per app.

PHP manager
Any PHP version, any subdomain
Run different PHP versions side by side. Tune PHP-FPM and monitor resource usage per instance.
Per-subdomain versions
Set a different PHP version on each subdomain. Run a legacy site on 7.4 and a new project on 8.5 on the same account.
PHP-FPM configuration
Tune PHP-FPM settings like memory limits, upload sizes, execution timeouts, and opcache directly from the panel.
Instance monitoring
View CPU usage, memory consumption, uptime, and socket path for each PHP-FPM instance. Restart with one click if needed.
PHP error logs
Dedicated PHP log viewer in the control panel. See errors, warnings, and deprecation notices without SSH access.
File manager
Browse, edit, and manage files in your browser
A full file explorer built into the control panel. No FTP client or SSH session needed for everyday file operations.
Visual file explorer
Navigate your files with a folder tree and file list view. Switch between grid and list layouts. Right-click context menus for quick actions.
Built-in code editor
Edit files directly in the browser with syntax highlighting. No need to download, edit, and re-upload.
Upload and download
Upload files up to 100 MB through the browser. Download individual files or entire directories.
File permissions
View and change file and directory permissions directly. Set owner, group, and other permissions without command-line access.
Archive handling
Extract zip, tar, and gz archives on the server. Compress files and directories into archives for download or backup.
MySQL databases
Databases, users, and remote access
Create and manage MySQL databases, assign users, and connect remotely with SSL encryption. phpMyAdmin is one click away.
Create databases and users
Provision new databases and users in seconds. Assign multiple users to a database, or multiple databases to a user. Labels help you organize everything.
Remote access via SSL
Create external database users with IP address restrictions. Connections are encrypted with SSL. Connect from your local development environment or external services.
phpMyAdmin built in
Open phpMyAdmin directly from the control panel with one click. No separate login, no configuration. Full database browsing, querying, and management.
Databases
External connections use SSL encryption with IP restrictions.
Cron jobs
Schedule tasks with full crontab support
Set up recurring URL-based tasks, monitor execution history, and run tests with one click.
URL-based scheduling
Point a cron job at any URL on your domain. The system makes an HTTP request on your schedule, triggering your script or endpoint.
Full crontab syntax
Use standard crontab expressions for precise scheduling. Every minute, every hour, specific days, or complex patterns.
Execution history
View the result of every cron run with status codes, response times, and timestamps. Troubleshoot failures without guessing.
One-click test
Run any cron job on demand to verify it works before waiting for the next scheduled execution.
Scheduled tasks
Caching
Nginx and Memcached, ready to go
Server-level caching that works out of the box. Configure per subdomain, purge on demand, or inspect cached data directly.
Nginx caching
Reverse proxy caching with per-subdomain controls. Set cache duration, exclude specific paths or file types, and purge individual URLs or flush everything.
- Per-subdomain enable and disable
- Configurable cache duration
- Path and file type exclusions
- Selective URL purge or full flush
- Ignore headers and query string options
Memcached
In-memory key-value caching for your applications. Connect via Unix socket or TCP, browse cached keys, and flush when needed.
- Unix socket and TCP connections
- Enable and disable with one click
- Built-in cache key browser
- Inspect individual cached values
- Flush cache on demand
DNS management
Full DNS zone control
Manage all your DNS records from the control panel. Import zone files, integrate with Cloudflare, and toggle DNS proxying.
All record types
Create and manage A, AAAA, CNAME, MX, TXT, SRV, and CAA records. Everything you need for email, subdomains, verification, and services.
DNSSEC with one switch
Turn DNSSEC on for a zone and the panel shows you the DS record to hand to your registrar. Turning it off warns you first, because removing it while the registrar still holds the DS record takes the domain offline.
Zone import and export
Import a full DNS zone file from your previous provider, or export your current zone for backup or migration.
Cloudflare integration
Connect your Cloudflare account and manage DNS proxying directly from the Hostney panel. Toggle proxy status per record.
Nameserver health
The panel checks that your domain actually points at our nameservers and tells you when it does not, which is the reason most new records look like they never applied.
Logs and monitoring
See everything your server is doing
Access logs, error logs, PHP logs, and traffic analytics. All viewable from the control panel without SSH.
Access logs
Request logs with IP info, status codes, and live streaming.
Error logs
Server errors and warnings with timestamps and context.
PHP logs
PHP errors, warnings, and deprecation notices per subdomain.
Traffic stats
Browsers, countries, top pages, referrers, and 6 more views.
